# TSHttpTxnErrorBodySet(3ts)

sets an error type body to a transaction

## NAME

TSHttpTxnErrorBodySet - sets an error type body to a transaction

## SYNOPSIS

```
#include <ts/ts.h>
```

- **void TSHttpTxnErrorBodySet(*TSHttpTxn* txnp, char \*buf, size\_t buflength, char \*mimetype)**

  ## DESCRIPTION

Note that both string arguments must be allocated with *TSmalloc()* or *TSstrdup()*.  The *mimetype* is optional, and if not provided it defaults to **text/html**. Sending an empty string would prevent setting a content type header (but that is not advised).
